The 2013 Beard and Stache Fest kicked off February 24th, 2013 at Hilliard's Beer in the Ballard neighborhood in Seattle, WA. As part of the festival, competitors get their portrait taken and put onto a can. The cans are placed in different bars around Seattle and people vote on who has the best beard by putting money in their can with all proceeds going to charity. The festival also features multiple events throughout March and ends at Chop Suey on April 5th, 2013. (Joshua Lewis / KOMO News)
